How to use: First, read through the rules carefully. Then, set up the game board and place the miniatures according to the starting positions described in the rulebook. Each player takes turns moving their units and using the abilities of their warlocks and warbeasts. Have fun strategizing and waging war with your chosen faction. Note: Keep the miniatures away from small children as they can be a choking hazard. Also, be careful when handling the unpainted miniatures to avoid any scratches. Maintenance: Store the miniatures in a cool, dry place. You can use a soft brush to clean them if they get dirty. If you plan to paint the miniatures, use appropriate paints and follow the painting instructions for best results.
